About Me
At Purdue University, I design and study dynamic learning with a focus on human curiosity, motivation, and decision-making. My early work explored cognitive effort and intrinsic motivation, supporting the idea that highly demanding tasks can be deeply rewarding.
​
Currently, I investigate information sampling and curiosity-driven learning—how agents navigate uncertainty, resist default paths, and discover motivation in complexity.
​
Across these projects, I’m building a case for a more generous model of learning: one that treats capability as discoverable, not fixed.
